I've had NA's for 7 years now and this one over the past 3 years I've dumped so much of my own time and money in to. Lately I don't even drive it because its so freakin loud and stiff suspension, etc. Maybe I'm just getting older and soft.. don't know. What really woke me up is I took my DD to the track (97 Nissan SE-R) and ran a 15.0 @ 91 on street tires with just intake, header, and pullies. I'd be lucky as hell to do that with my 7. The thing is the 7 is great through the turns, is clean as hell since I baby it, has 77k original, runs great, and like I said has a ton of my own hard work into it. I've killed the resale value with all the mods and removal of accessories and *****. I don't want to do a T2 swap because it runs great and don't want to deal with that hassle and uncertainty behind the used parts I'd get. What should I do? Anyone have a basically stock running T2 they'd trade? I love 7's and wouldn't want to sell it at a huge loss and have nothing then.

i've felt the same way you do, but i relized i just need to save more money, buy a T2 than i'll have both! I've had 4 other N/As two of which were first gens... God why do i love rotary's so much...

I felt the same way, I was not going to give up my car, but I dont' regret it one bit, I love working on this car..

Amen to that!

I went for a ride in an new Rx2 when I was 12 (yes, I AM that ol....) pedal to the metal all the way, & I was hooked.

I've got plastic see thru models of engines, rotary model aircraft engines, books, posters, rotor housing doorstops...........sad, sad, sad



FC I have done the same thing (DD is faster, easier etc) and sold my rote. Always ended up missing the things & buying another.... did that a few times before I learned!



The final solution for my lack of faith came with 3 rotors.....I will never stray again!

same thing goes thru my head everytime I look at my car.



sell it.....keep it..... sell it...... keep it



hurts to convert it because it runs so good



what to do-what to do?

my 83 is kinda like that, its fun to drive but its slow, i could upgrade and make it fast, but i kinda like having just a stock car too. i kinda decided just to enjoy it like it is rather than mod it. it is a lot of fun in the turns, and like point a to point b stuff, but its prolly a high 16second car

this is a perfect example of how once you get into the game,,, you always want more.... i mean this man has a 3 rotor and he is bitch about how ONE of his OTHER sevens is too slow...........wow

lol, I guess my point is I love it too much to give it up but not enough to keep dumping money into it. I'm sure you guys know what I mean. I just need some motivation once in a while.

And when you live in a country where you can get a new WRX for the same price as a 7 yo FD it REALLY tests the faith......
